Starting a local GhostBSD meetup group could be a great way to build community engagement while supporting the project. Organizing fundraising events, including auctions, can help raise funds for GhostBSD (coordinated with Eric Turgeon). Similar initiatives have been successful in other FOSS communities.
In my experience, FOSS enthusiasts can be highly competitive in auctions, often driving bids well beyond typical market value, especially when supporting a cause they believe in. It’s not just effective for fundraising but also entertaining to watch the bidding unfold.
